you should get them the last week of January (give or take). They will be emailed with a summary of your performance in each area

Ugh, that’s how I feel. Borderline. Oh well.
my experience was that you’ll begin to feel better about it over the next few days, and then feel fine by Christmas and New Year. Then, about one week before the resutls come out, you feel like crap again. yay.
haha spot on. Unless you crushed it, people generally feel worst right after.. and the confidence creeps in

I thought afternoon was much more difficult than morning. I thought morning was easier than the cfai mock, but afternoon was harder than mock.
It seems the general consensus over the years for L1 has been: afternoon is harder

I actually didn’t know what to expect but def found it a bit less wordy and less quantitative than the Schweser mocks. That being said, I still had to watch my time and was cutting it close. Good thing I did it so that I had enough time to check my answers etc.
Am not confident that I passed though…..:(
Most people have that same comment. Schweser practice is almost always more quant based vs the actual. They do it on purpose, to get you to learn the calculations stuff cold. Let’s you spend more time on the thinking stuff
 
I found about 5 empty seats at my test center. Some might have given up right before the exam. A friend of mine even saw a few guys sat for the exam in the morning but did not show up for the afternoon session. Ahhh, I don’t understand why they did it half way and didn’t want to attempt with the other half. That’s a waste fo efforts, time and money.
One thing that made me surprised was that many young people take the exam, at least at my test center. I can say 2/3 of candidates range about 21-23 and they looked quite confident.
 
Do we get an email from CFAI about the exact date in January that we will receive our results?
 
Anybody confident enough to buy the materials for L2 and start studying? I’m a bit tempted, even though I am not confident. Otherwise, two months wasted doing nothing :)
 
I want to start reviewing but I don’t see the point, you can be super confident and still not pass.

I would just enjoy the time off. You’ll probably fail Level 2 anyway (statistically speaking) so you might as just have fun for a few weeks.

I believe they just post the date on the website.
